\"\"<\/a>The gose style of beer has been through some worse days. The 20th<\/sup> century saw this German style of beer\u2014typically quite tart, with additions of coriander and sea salt\u2014completely cease production on more than one occasion. Ron Pattinson put together a particularly compelling history of the style over on his blog Shut Up About Barclay Perkins <\/em>about ten years back, which also serves double duty as being a snapshot of what the gose scene was like in 2007. (Spoiler alert: \u2018Scene\u2019 is a strong word.) At the time, Pattinson wrote: \u201cFor the first time since before 1939 there is more than one brewery currently making a Gose, two in Leipzig itself. It\u2019s still easier to find K\u00f6lsch in the city, so Gose hasn\u2019t been restored to its former popularity, but the style is more secure today than it has been for any time in the last 50 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today, there are hundreds of examples. Some authentic. Some authentic-ish. And some with additions of prickly pear, or dry-hopping, or aged in tequila barrels and over 10% ABV. The combo of lactic tartness (particularly as kettle-souring practices continue to spread) with the tempering additions of salt and coriander (plus a myriad of other things) has helped fuel lots of creative attempts in this general style space in recent years. Our sense of gose broadened.<\/p>\n

So, what\u2019s your favorite? Personally speaking: Westbrook\u2019s Gose (from South Carolina) has been a reliable go-to (in cans!), offering assertive tartness that aims at authenticity. Upright\u2019s Gose (from Oregon) is another delicious U.S. take, but employs French saison yeast instead of focusing on lactic acid\u2014resulting in more of a curious wheat beer. And while purists may shake their heads at Perennial\u2019s Suburban Beverage out of Missouri (using Key limes, Meyer lemons and Valencia oranges), it\u2019s exactly the interpretation of \u2018gose\u2019 I\u2019d want at the beach.<\/p>\n

Whether traditional or (may the brewing gods have mercy on our souls…) barrel-aged, we\u2019re curious what you\u2019re digging on the gose front. What\u2019s hitting the spot lately?
